Dangote Issues Statement Following Accident Involving Phyna’s Sister

Dangote Group has confirmed that one of its trucks was involved in an accident that left Ruth Otabor, sister of Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner Phyna, with severe injuries.

The incident occurred in Auchi, Edo State, and Ruth’s leg was amputated due to the severity of the accident.

In response, Dangote Group has pledged to provide comprehensive medical care and appropriate compensation to Ruth, in line with the company’s welfare policy.

The company’s senior officials and insurance team visited Ruth and family at Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital, where she is receiving treatment, to offer support and ensure her well-being.

Phyna had earlier demanded justice for her sister on social media, sparking widespread outrage and calls for accountability.

Several Nollywood actresses, including Kate Henshaw, have joined Phyna in demanding justice for Ruth.

Dangote Group has expressed its commitment to Ruth’s recovery and support for her family during this challenging time.

The statement reads: ““Following the recent road accident in Auchi, Edo State, involving one of our trucks, which sadly resulted in injury to Mrs. Ruth Otabor, senior officials from Dangote Cement Plc, together with our insurance team, promptly visited the scene, engaged with law enforcement authorities, and visited the victim and her family at Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital, Edo State.
